JB - Responding to a Track

1. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VVkNDe2pnQ4

2. The genre of this tack is predominantly indie, I can tell this as there a full band backing him , the drums and guitars are not synthed, however the way the lyrics are presented could be classified as hip hop as they are not sung but more like a rap.

3. This represents that this is a lo fi track or a hi fi track, it could be taken both ways, as the lyrics at the start are talking about him at his home and describing his life, which come to good effect as lo fi, however as it becomes a narative about travelling to cuba, it could go a step further and be a third person narrative which could deal with a more hi fi video isntead of the 'home video' look to it.

4. There are comparable videos such as Hadouken - Liquid Lives, The streets - Escapist and Example - Who needs sunshine. These videos have a minimal effect where post production effects are barely used, these are useful to us as they can use the small amount of equipment and a low budget which they have and use it as productively as possible.

Example - Who needs sunshine?

Hadouken - Liquid Lives

The Streets - Escapist

5. The budget of the tracks shown, such as Hadouken - Liquid Lives have a very low budget, it is is filmed by a simple handicam and in just one location, a house room, the is effective to this song as the lyrics are about a house party and gives it a lo fi look as it is shaky and minimal post production effects.

6. Boy is fed up with life in England, he likes this girl he has met recently but is to shy to say anything, wants to go Cuba before Fidel Castro dies and wants to take her with him.

7. Suitable locations to film this is at a house, mainly bedroom and living room, a workplace's kitchen, Outside a house in the front garden, and at an airport.

8. A character to use for suitable grain and voice will be white, young male with an indy costume to him.

10. Probably the only other people which could help us with this filming would probably be another girl as a character and a driver as one of us will be the character and the other will be filming if there is a driving scene.
